Costs of design for a new layout but more just makes scheduling and equipment changes more difficult in general. The less complex a fleet the easier it is overall to manage and also more flexible and cheaper! For the small gain there would be its how do you allocate those aircraft to certain routes and be sure to fill the extra seats to offset the extra cost.
